Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, gave employees a sneak peek at a set of AI tools it was developing on Thursday, including ChatGPT-like chatbots for Messenger and WhatsApp that could converse using different personas.
According to a Reuters report, company executives speaking at an all-hands meeting also demonstrated a forthcoming Instagram feature that could modify user photos via text prompts and another that could create emoji stickers for messaging services.
The presentation provided the first concrete indications of how the social media giant intends to make its own generative AI tools available to its 3.8 billion monthly users, months after competitors such as Google, Microsoft, and Snapchat announced a rush of such tool launches in their products.
